The Liberal Party is a classical liberal political party in Honduras, founded in 1839. The party produced the first President of Honduras, Juan Francisco de Molina, but the party was out of power from 1839 to 1852; from 1852 to 1856, 1862 to 1863, 1872 to 1874, 1876 to 1883, 1894 to 1903, 1907, 1919 to 1924, 1924 to 1925, 1929 to 1933, 1957 to 1963, 1982 to 1990, 1994 to 2002, and 2006 to 2010, the party led the country. The party was rivals with the Conservative Party of Honduras for much of the 19th century, only to later become rivals with the National Party of Honduras upon its foundation in 1902.
